    Republicans are worse on everything else, but at least when they’re running things into the ground democrats are actually motivated to take action- as opposed to when its their guy doing it and they all act like their shit doesn’t stink.

    Biden eliminated all the supports + eviction protections from covid. If Trump was trying to “end COVID” with 9/11s of deaths happening every month do you really think the Democrats would just be going along with it?

      You aren’t explicitly saying a Trump presidency would be better for America, but do you understand that most people will take your comment to mean that?

      Edit: … And that’s what she meant.

            I don’t say this to in any way condone the genocide. I’m fully against the genocide. But, this is a complex issue with a lot of factors on both sides that can drive normally reasonable people to do bad things.

            What an enormous piece of shit, between that and your intentional misgendering in the other comment, I was not surprised that you’re “against” genocide except when team blue does it.

            Why else would you be jumping into my replies to misgender me and threaten me with what the reactionaries will do after Biden loses the election?

            You are all so into your team sports that you can’t process dissent and have to attack the messenger instead.

                It’s just showing everyone what a shitty ‘ally’ you are, that you’re willing to intentionally misgender people you pretend to ‘support’ when they don’t vote for your team.

                I really don’t know who you’re trying to convince with that.

                But someone uses the wrong pronoun and you lose your shit. Keep at it!

                I was politely correcting people, and pointing out the open bigotry you’re engaging in, in case it was not malicious.

                You seem to be way too comfortable with threatening and insulting women, which is honestly what I’ve come to expect from people who are also comfortable turning a blind eye to a genocide. You seem almost gleeful telling me what the 'bad cops" are going to do to me for the sin of not voting for the ‘good cops’.

                I’m not voting for your genocide or fascist border bullshit

        Most people are so into the team sports that anything critical of team blue is treated like a religious heresy.

          There’s a large subcategory of leftists who refuse to say whether Trump or Biden would be a better president. If you feel you aren’t treated with sufficient charitability, you should put the blame squarely on their shoulders.

            I don’t really care about people I don’t like treating me charitably, I want democrats to stop being absolute dogshit and I don’t see how rewarding them with a vote does that.

                1 not a guy

                2 learn how to read, the context “treating me charitably” was me quoting the person I was responding to, who said he was “treating me charitably” as in he was allegedly listening to what I was saying.

                3 I don’t respond to threats, and if you’re threatening me that if I don’t vote for the genocide guy that all nonwhites are getting their rights taken away. That doesn’t distinguish you from them, nor provide me a reason to view your party as a credible opposition.

                  Your views on this are incredibly unappealing and flawed at a base level. It’s clear you’re thinking with your heart instead of your brain. I commend your stance and want to make the world better but you’re moreso trying to spite a guy you don’t approve of and the most likely outcome of acting on this spite is a harsher genocide in Palestine.

                  You already know this, of course.

                    I don’t respond to people threatening me with ‘how much worse’ the other guy is, your guy is the one trying to pass the republican border bill, and has made it extremely clear that they’re giving Israel a blank check.

                    I don’t care about American lives more than I care about Palestinian lives. I don’t approve of genocide, and I’m not voting for people who are enabling one.

                  Oh numbers!

                  1. Don’t care, and neither do the ones that will destroy you and yours if you get Trump elected.

                  2. Same as one

                  3. Same as one

                  This is boring your blocked, your gross stupidity is boring.

                precursor to throwing people in concentration camps type shit

                We’re already putting people in concentration camps, and Biden is adding fuel to the anti-immigrant hysteria that allows it to happen. Not to mention, he’s continued to extend Trump’s fascist border policy to the point that even more people have been imprisoned and deported under Biden than under Trump.

                The only way to ignore this is if you dehumanize immigrants to the point that you don’t think they have rights, or feelings like you do.
